Mr Maris Ginters has been working in the RSU International Department since April 2010, and combined with his studies and academic experience he has been part of the RSU community for over 20 years. He is an RSU alumnus (Master's degree of social sciences in political science, 2005).

Over the course of his professional life at RSU, he has gained extensive experience (both administrative and academic) in working with international students by organising various aspects of international students' life at RSU, including student counselling, immigration procedures, accommodation. Since May 2014 he has been working with RSU international admissions.

When the RSU International Admissions Office was developed in 2015 as a part of the International Department, Mr Maris Ginters was directly involved in reorganisation of the admission process and in building relations with international cooperation and recruitment partners. The modernisation of the RSU admission process and the improvement of work with agents has continued ever since. As the result of these activities and measures, the number of RSU international students has continued to increase reaching 3000 students in 2024. RSU also works on expanding the geographical and regional representation of our students – the number of countries our international students come from has reached 85 in 2024.

Since January 2016 Mr Maris Ginters is the Head of the International Admissions Office of the International Department at RSU, and since November 2024, the Acting Director of the International Department at RSU.
